With all of the hate that's been going around the kawaii community especially from TikTok people need to remember that harajuku is for anyone. Any race can dress kawaii not just east Asians. You can be any age and like kawaii things and thing's that are childish and liking those things do not make you a pedophile (unfortunately I've seen people being called this because they like cute stuff) you can be plus sized and you are just as kawaii as anyone else. You can be any gender any skin tone and disabled and you are still kawaii. This fashion should always feel open to anybody
